Really, I try to avoid this Weblog Awards nonsense. Paying attention to it has turned me into a pathetic vote-seeker in the past, and so I steadfastly refused to nominate myself or pay any attention during this last go-round.

But reader Rick W. e-mailed me with a link to the list of Finalists, and imagine my shock to see this list of Finalists for Best Conservative Blog:

One of these things is not like the others,
One of these things just doesn’t belong . . .

Well, it’s a pleasure to see my name on such a distinguished list, even if it’s a certainty that I will end up at the bottom. I’m okay with that. It’s like that saying: you’d rather have the worst house in the best neighborhood than the best house in the worst neighborhood.

This is a great neighborhood to be in, and I’m thrilled to be an occupant of the worst house of the group.

There are some quality blogs on the list, but Patterico is way out in front for quality of discussion. Guess that doesn’t warrant its own category…this year. A related category might be the “thinking liberal’s favorite conservative blog”.

I would doubt that any of these people who run these fine weblogs have a full-time job as a prosecuter. I would not imply that what they do daily in their lives is in any way more or less important than yours. Only that you can do both so well. A father’s son you are.

Should beat all those boring award shows with the suail hollywood idiots giving long boring speeches of why they won. I WANT TO THANK ALL THE FISH IN THE OCEAN ALL THE BIRDS IN THE AIR ALL THE ANIMALS IN THE JUNGLE ALL THE BUGS THAT C CRAWL went these critter could,nt give a darn why they won
